When is a surjective polynomial map proper?

Suppose $F: mathbbC^n to mathbbC^n$ is a surjective function such that $F$ is defined by a polynomial in each coordinate, i.e.
$$ F = (f_1,ldots,f_n) quad f_i in mathbbC[x_1,ldots,x_n] : forall i leq n $$



I know that for $n = 1$, $F$ is simply a polynomial function in one variable, and therefore the fact that $F$ is surjective implies $F$ is proper. Furthermore I know that for $n > 1$, each $f_i$ is not proper as a map $f_i: mathbbC^n to mathbb C$. My question is, under what circumstances is the map $F$ a proper map in general? Is this dependent or independent of whether $F$ is a submersion?

    Since positive-dimensional subvarieties of $Bbb C^n$ can never be compact, the only time the map can be proper is if all the fibers are $0$-dimensional.

  • Would every fiber being $0$-dimensional be sufficient to show that $F$ is proper?
